Default Are these good sparkplugs?

Hey guys,

Are these good spark plug wires...
APC 90-01 Acura Integra 9.3m Spark Plug Wires
...they are APC 9.3mm. Would they be good for my application (1992 integra RS) or should i go with something else?

Thanks

Spark plug wires are a waste of money. The stock ones will be perfect for a long while.

OEM, the best and actually cheaper than many other brands. otherwise, go with bosch.

I've actually found that the Bosch wires tend to wear out rather quickly. If not OEM, then get some with a lifetime warranty from Napa.

interesting. the bosch wires on my 300E lasted for 100k miles...kinda forgot to replace them for a while. and the bosch glow plug wires on my 190DT were never replaced. but, those were oem too.

oem honda lasted 100k on the integra and did just fine, i would not recommend letting the cap&rotor going that long, very worn.

I can't believe APC is making mechanical products now . They should just stick to their crappy aesthetic products.

it doesn't say NGK on the honda plug wires...it says sumitomo or something like that. thats what it says on the ones made in 1990 and 2003.
